Check for spark
: pull off one spark plug wire off the plug
place it near ground (metal around the engine )
ask helper to crank the engine for you watch for arcing between the wire and the ground
or the safe way , you can get a spark tester and place it between the wire and the spark plug and watch it glow when cranking if you have spark
you need a fuel pressure tester gauge to check the fuel
also u need a bulb to check for injector pulse
pull wire connector off injector place bulb tester in and crank if light on off you r good
